Weston County, Wyoming, courthouse.
The Justice Department has sued California to block new congressional district boundaries approved by California voters last week.
It's leaving the Texas crap districts alone, however.
In Utah, a Court blocked an effort to prevent their new commission designed districts, which features, gasp, a Democratic seat.
Cont:
Trump ordered the Justice Department to investigate links Jeffrey Epstein had to prominent Democrats and institutions including former President Bill Clinton and former treasury secretary, Larry Summers. Read as he bounces off the wall in panic like a grade school dodge ball. Bondi, of course, a loyal sycophant, appointed a prosecutor.

The judge is clearly signaling that this case is well on the way towards being dismissed.

A Federal Court in Texas has blocked the state from using its recently redrawn Congressional District map.
Oops.
This will be appealed, but if the decision is upheld it would mean that the five GOP (probably) seats that the state added won't be, while California, in a recent election, added five.
Oops.
Additionally, early indicators are that Texas Hispanics are following the national tread and are becoming disenchanted with the GOP, so some Texas districts may swing Democratic on their own.
Oops.
All of this could mean that the 2026 election could see the House not only swing Democratic, but perhaps massively so, and that some of the Returning Republicans are no longer big fans of Trump, to which those survivors will be reassessing their loyalty to Trump.

Sen. Elissa Slotkin, Sen. Mark Kelly, and Reps. Jason Crow, Chris Deluzio, Maggie Goodlander and Chrissy Houlahan, all veterans, released a video urging member of the armed forces not to follow illegal orders. Donald Trump is now threatening them with prosecution for sedition, and the death penalty, which is ironic, as Trump is a seditionist.
A Federal Court ordered the illegal Trump deployment of National Guardsmen to Washington D.C. to come to an end.

Deposition testimony of Jack Smith.
From the deposition:
President Trump was by a large measure the most culpable and most responsible person in this conspiracy. These crimes were committed for his benefit. The attack that happened at the Capitol…does not happen without him.

The big news, of course, is that an illegitimate foreign head of state has been indicted in the United States brought here in a raid by an illegitimate head of state who has experience with the criminal justice system himself.
Total bogosity.
In other news, and in more bogosity of a sorts, the National Rifle Association is suing the NRA Foundation, a trust that benefits the NRA in what partially can be attributed to an ongoing inter NRA feud.
That things were going wrong at the NRA was pretty evident for quite some time. Things are still going wrong at the NRA. The organization was run for decades by Wayne LaPierre who followed in the footsteps of Haron Carter in fundamentally changing the organization.
Carter rose to power in the organization in 1977. Prior to that date the organization had been agnostic on gun control. Following that it moved to being an ardent opponent.
It was under Wayne LaPierre, however, that the organization became radical, frequently using extreme claims to raise funds. His personal life a bit of a mystery, but he was undoubtedly successful in building up the NRA which became effectively a fundraising arm of the Republican Party, which it remains in spite of LaPierre's fall in a corruption trial. While LaPierre is gone, the current NRA maintains the script, even though its numbers are falling dramatically off. It will, for instance, no longer issue a print edition of the American Rifleman starting this year.
What exactly this trial entials I don't know. It'll be interesting to watch. It's already accused the Foundation of being run by the disgruntled.
At any rate, while NRA concerns about gun control were well placed into the 1990s, the supposed threats they posed were really waning by late in that decade and the organization has been crying wolf for years. Gun owners know that and have been dropping out of it, tired of the message that Stalingrad is right around the corner. Moderate Republicans who are horrified by Trump have not been impressed with NRA's ongoing drumbeat for him. The LaPierre tactics that lead to its rise, and fall, foreshadowed the rise and tactics of MAGA to some degree, and like a lot of things touched by Trump, the organization appears to be dying. In recent years, it's support for Trump have lead to claims of hypocrisy by some on the left.
A sad thing is that the NRA really does do some very important firearms work. It supports shooting programs, matches and range safety in a major way. There's nothing to replace it in these areas.

I have to wonder if this:
Will influence the United States Supreme Court, which is about to rule on the legality of Trump's tariffs. A sane ruling would strike them down as illegal. If they were thinking of supporting them, as of right now they knew that Donald Trump is Bat Shit Crazy and ought to be reined in with a curb bit until he gags.
He's nuts.
Maybe this will influence the Court.

Basically, the Trump Administration has been white washing history displays at the parks, part of both a MAGA knee jerk and National Conservative agenda.
